General Butler Quite—A Shame.
Kinston Free Press. ,
The resignation of General Smed
ley ,D. Butler, prohibition commis
sioner of Philadelphia, because of 'he
failure of the courts and committing
magistrates of the “City of Brotherly
Imre" to support and co-operate with
him in his efforts to enforce the 18th
amendment is nothing short of a na
titonnl disgrace. General Butler, it
►will be recalled was given a leave of
absence from the Marine corps, of
which he was a general officer, to take
charge of the police department of
Philadelphia and enforce the prohibi
tion law. He went about his work
in characteristic military fashion and
gave every evidence of a sincere and
determined purpose to enforce the

favoritism has been given and that
the arrests have constantly been on
the increase. Yet he reveals the la
mentable fact, in tendering his resig
nation, that the convictions are on the
decrease - and that it is a practically
hopeless situation so long as the courts
are dominated by tAie influences that
are aligned with the bootlegging in
dustry.
General Butler is not the first con
scientious and capable officer to be
come discouraged because of an ap
parent lack of co-operation on the
part of the courts in the enforcement
of prohibition and anti-vice laws. IP's
a crying shame that some steps can
not, be taken by the righteous people
of this to put into judicial
positions men who will dot 1 violate
their oaths of office to replace those
who are manifestly controlled by the
liquorites, or in sympathy with them,
as must'be the case in Philadelphia.

HIGH POINT HAS AN
ODD CONTROVERSY
. Grave Ordered Opened to Tell Who’s
Buried' In It; .Act Forbidden.
High Point, Sept. 17.—The grave
of a child in the local cemetery has
been ordered opened by the city
council. J .
This action wus taken by the coun
cil after it had been asked to settle
a controversy arising over the loca
tion of a grave. J. D. Strader claims
that his child is buried in the grave,
while M. H. Chadwick claims that
tlie gruve is that of his child. R. 1,.
Smith is supporting Chadwick in his
contenton.
The council ordered the keeper of
the cemetery to open the grave in thft
presence of a committee consisting
of the city physician, chief of police,
local undertakers and representa
tives of the Strader, Chadwick and
Smith families.
Strader'is willing for.the grave to
be opened, but Chadwick and Smith,
'who say they arc satisfied beyond
any doubt that the GiuuUvick child is
buried there, refuse to give their per
mission for it to be opened.
Today Chadwick and Smith served
notice on the committee, through a
deputy sheriff, that, they are forbid
den to open the grave in question or
to interfere with it, and now the
problem is unsolved.
Strader told the city council that
tombstone placed on the gruve,
- which he believed to be that of his
■ child, were removed by Chadwick,
and Chadwick udmitted to the coun
cil (hat lie did remove them, but not
until he had made every effort to
have Strader give the matter his at
tention.
What action will be taken foliow
ing the injunction is only u mutter of
speculation, but Strader said if
■necessary he would carry tin- ques
tion to the supreme court for a de
cision. Able attorneys have been em
ployed on both sides!
